Customer Reviews
I purchased this laptop for development in college while getting my CS degree, and so far I have been nothing but impressed. The power management software is very useful for creating profiles, the fans are next to inaudible, it's very quick and I rarely need to reboot. Awaking from hibernation/standby is faster than any other laptop I've used.
This laptop's keyboard is one of it's stand out features, and is honestly the best keyboard I've ever used on a laptop, period. The keys are strong and firm, and you don't have to worry about feeling like you're going to break them by typing too hard. The BIOS option to switch Fn and Ctrl was also very helpful.
For any Linux users I have 11.04 ubuntu installed in a dual boot configuration, and from what I can tell everything so far has been working out of box.
So far there are really only two downsides to this laptop that I've noticed so far, and they are both very minor. The physical switch that enables/disables the wifi radio on the right side of the unit is very difficult to toggle. It's recessed into its little whole just slightly too much, and at least with mine, is so stiff that I feel like I'm going to break it when switching off and on. The keyboard function of toggling the radio works just fine, so I don't really use the physically switch.
Secondly, the screen tends to get marked up by the keys when it is closed and transported in a carrying bag or backpack. You can usually notice a small little circle imprint on the display from the tracking circle on the keyboard. Again, these are very small complaints and overall have been incredibly satisfied.
This version of Thinkpad is really good.
Offers good performance at a cheap price.
The fan is awsome, the computer never gets hot.. Loud speaker is also nice..
If you're looking for a Thinkpad, but not the most advanced one, this is a choice.
